Pegged my oil pressure gauge today
went out on I-10 and got the car up to 5000 rpms (automatic transmission) and the oil pressure was past the 80psi mark ....
faulty sending gauge? or what the heck is going on here?
oil is not overfilled ..... Mobile 1 5w30

You can have excessive oil pressure, which is not good. It will cost you in all kinds of ways. I don't think you have anything more than either a malfunctioning guage or a sending unit. Factory guages aren't known for their absolute precision.
